Default Re: Vendors

I agree, its impossible to know. I too just ordered some plants from a 'well known and beloved vendor' who is on this site, Dave's Garden, eBay and probably every other site known to man. He has many friends who come to his defense whenever any negative comment is made about his products. But the truth is, his stuff is NOT worth the money he asks for it. I have received better plants as trades from complete strangers than I have gotten from him, so I have decided that I won't order from him again, nor will I recommend him to others.

My advice is, if you live in a place where there are any kind of regular sales within driving distance of you, go and buy your plants in person and not over the net. If that's not possible, try to trade with someone you know and trust
